## About Sheep Inc.

Sheep Inc. is a sustainable fashion brand based in London, founded in 2018 by Edzard van der Wyck and Michael Wessely.

The company is committed to producing high-quality clothing with a naturally carbon-negative footprint. It is recognized as the first independently audited carbon-negative clothing brand globally, having introduced the first carbon-zero hoodie in 2021 and the world's first carbon-negative T-shirt. Operating as a Direct-to-Consumer brand, Sheep Inc. emphasizes a transparent supply chain that sources ethically produced Merino wool. Each garment features a "Connected Dot" NFC tag, allowing customers to learn about the origins of their clothing. The brand offers a lifetime guarantee on its products, which include premium knitwear such as crewneck sweaters, hoodies, T-shirts, and trousers. Sheep Inc. also engages customers through a sheep adoption program, fostering a connection to the source of their clothing. The company has successfully raised significant capital to support its mission, including a £5 million Series A funding round in March 2025.
